Everquest 2 Leveling Guide: 1-20 Greater Faydark

Greater Faydark is one of the two starting zones good aligned players can choose from. Kelethin, the Elf / Fae city lies in the middle. The zone will take players from level 1 -20 with approximately 15-20 AA’s. If you reach level 20 before you’ve completed all the quests it’s a good idea to raise your AA slider to 100% before you complete the rest of the quests here.

On the map below the red areas mark the areas with questgivers. The letters indicated approximately in what order the quest should be done:

Once you are level 20 you can either stay for some more AA’s or move on to Butcherblock Mountains.

Below is a list of all quests in Greater Faydark (I usually skip the quests in Kelethin so there area a few quests that are not listed here):

The Nursery : Level 1-7 (Area A)

This is the area you start in. Blow though the quests here, you should be around level 7 in 10 minutes or so. When you are finished move south and into the caves in Echo Echo Canyon.
